James 2

James starts with a message that we should show no partiality.  Rich, poor, man, or women; it doesn't matter we should love and serve them alike.  After that we hear that faith is dead without works.  If we say we have faith but bear no fruit what good is that faith.  If we have works, but have no faith to drive those works what good do they do? Faith and works must be put together, they walk hand in hand.  They need each other.  They both support each other.
